Abstract

The chapter discussed the integration of social media to library and information services rendered in libraries. The authors paid more attention to how this is possible in Nigeria reviewing what other authors have done in related areas and the current reality in our libraries. The authors gave a background information of what social media, library, and library services are. The chapter is broken down into the following sub-headings for easier discussion and understanding: overview and types of social media that libraries can adopt, services rendered by libraries social media can be integrated into, benefits of social media to library services, challenges of social media use in Nigerian libraries, and the future of social media in a world of changing technologies.
